As owner of the website. My inspiration for the Holistic World Dance page comes from my passion of Middle Eastern Dance and Music, art, the culture and most importantly, the people. Also is and always will be my first love. Belly Dancing was the start of my journey. But I have also fallen in love with the folklore dances and other traditional dances from every country in the whole Middle East. The artists that I have known throughout my journey, told me what certain dances mean to them spiritually, holistically and romantically etc. So I decided to research and add other cultures as well. Aside from Middle Eastern dance. And everything about dance. There is holistic dance from Peru, Brazilian Dance, African Dance, Japanese Dance, Korean Dance, Flamenco, Vienna Austria, Skate Dancing. Holistic and healing dance as well as Latin American - Ballroom Dance. An audience comes to watch a dancer perform. And is taken back by the beautiful costumes and stage settings. It is nice to have an understanding of everything about the dance, also what the dancer is feeling. All dance is spiritual and passionate. A way of expressing one self in pray or a romantic gesture through motion. Each culture connects a little differently in a holistic way. Middle Eastern Dance's especially are very spiritual.
